Innovative Curatorial Projects – Paris / SingaporeLowave Collection
Lowave's film and video collection has been built between 2002 and 2014 and features over 250 video artists and filmmakers from around the world. The label has contributed to an important number of international exhibitions, biennials, film and video festivals, as well as academic programmes. As Lowave's activities evolve, we have stopped our film distribution and our catalogue serves now as an archive that documents over a decade of film and video art history. A selection of our DVDs is on sale at Re:Voir in Paris.

Andrew Kötting
*1959, Lumberkacj, Finland. Lives and works in Saint Leonards-on-Sea, Sussex.
Born in Lumberkacj in Finland, Andrew Kötting studied art in London before becoming a father to Leila, then founding his production company Bad Blood and Sibyl, in the French Pyrenees. Prolific and polymorphic, his artistic production has developed within the confines of cinema, performance and installations since the start of the '90s. His two feature films Gallivant in 1996, and Cette sale terre in 2004, are exemplary of the radicality and freedom which permeates all of his work, permitting the comparison made by E.D Distribution, to the work of Derek Jarman.
